IMPORTANT! Check the resistance value on the replacement printhead. The value is found on a label at the bottom of the printhead, as illustrated to the left. If new printhead's resistance differs from the value of the previous one, the printhead resistance setup must be changed as explained on next page.
❑
Reassemble in reverse order.
❑
If possible, check that the printhead is working and properly aligned by printing a series of test labels, as described in the Technical Description.
